Women and the Vote

Pastor Piss on the Wall's wife doesn't think God wants her to vote
As a citizen of the US, I have a right to vote. However, I do not exercise this right, because I believe that based on the Bible, it is wrong for women to vote.
She justifies this position with numerous bible quotes, all of which have led her to conclude:
...it is wrong for women to exercise authority over men
Pulling a page from the Cross Current's play book she continues:
It is not because women are inferior or less intelligent. They simply fulfill a different role. Man was created by God for a certain purpose, and so was woman. If each fulfilled his God-given role, they would be happier in life, and our society would greatly benefit.
This might be true. Anything is possible. But I refuse to accept that the roles performed by women 4000 years in  ago are ipso facto the only correct way for women to behave in every time and place for evermore. If you want me to accept that the hunter/gather model should be emulated now, you need to be better than a bald assertion.
